The 70273 Project

Thursday, August 11, 2016

I always have many EPP projects on the go, that way I can switch between them usually on a fortnightly basis & never get bored of stitching the same thing. Here are some I'm currently focusing on.....

Back in August 2016 I started making some EPP Glitter blocks having drafted my own templates a little larger than those from Jen Kingwell's book Quilt Lovely

This is another great pattern for mixing up the fabric scraps

Where I'm at so far....

Then in October last year, inspired by some amazing vintage hexagon mosaic quilts, especially those of Albert Small I decided to design my own mosaic. I started colouring in like mad & came up with this for a starting off point

Then the stitching began....

another round was added...

& another section

This is where I'm at today, the main centre pattern is nearly complete. I'm using 3/4" hexagons for this quilt

Next up we have EPP triangles. I had a quite a few redundant triangles cut for a border of another quilt which just didn't work out as I had planned.
